Given information:

 Development cost (Year 1): $30,000,000

 Operating and maintenance cost growth rate: 3%

 Traffic growth rate: 2%

 Toll growth rate: 2%

 Discount rate: 10%

 Period of analysis: 10 years

Step 1: Calculate Cash Flows

Year 1:

 Development Cost = -$30,000,000

Year 2 and onwards:

 Operating and maintenance cost (Costt) = $400,000 * (1 + 3%)^(t-2)

 Traffic revenue (Revenuet) = 750,000 * $4.50 * (1 + 2%)^(t-2)

Step 2: Discount Cash Flows

Year 1:

 CF1 = -$30,000,000 / (1 + 0.10)^1 = -$27,272,727.27

Year 2:

 Revenue2 = $3,375,000

 Cost2 = $400,000

 CF2 = $2,975,000 / (1.10)^2 = $2,256,097.56

Year 3:

 Traffic3 = 750,000 * (1 + 0.02)^(3-2) = 765,000

 Toll3 = $4.50 * (1 + 0.02)^(3-2) = $4.59

 Cost3 = $400,000 * (1 + 0.03)^(3-2) = $412,000

 Revenue3 = Traffic3 * Toll3 = 765,000 * $4.59 = $3,509,350

 CF3 = Revenue3 - Cost3 = $3,097,350

PV3 = CF3 / (1.10)3 ≈ 3,097,350 / 1/331 ≈ $2,322,585.38


Year 4:

 Traffic4 = 750,000 * (1 + 0.02)^(4-2) = 780,300

 Toll4 = $4.50 * (1 + 0.02)^(4-2) = $4.68

 Cost4 = $400,000 * (1 + 0.03)^(4-2) = $424,360

 Revenue4 = Traffic4 * Toll4 = 780,300 * $4.68 = $3,655,704

 CF4 = Revenue4 - Cost4 = $3,231,344

PV4 = CF4 / (1.10)4 ≈ 3,231,344 / 1.4641 ≈ $2,204,073.02

Continue this process for Years 5 through 10.

Step 3: Sum the Present Values

PV=∑t=110(1.10)tCFt

PV≈−27,272,727.27+2,256,097.56+2,322,585.38+2,204,073.02+…+PV10

PV≈−27,272,727.27+2,256,097.56+2,322,585.38+2,204,073.02+1,895,904.8
5+1,627,620.24+1,398,243.35+1,198,731.68+1,022,634.81+865,038.55

PV ≈ $3,385,315.05
